19 month update

I'm 19 months old and I still don't have much to report in the hair department.

I'm talking non-stop now. Although I still talk in jibberish (a lot), I can pretty much repeat anything that you ask me to say. The bad thing is that I repeat some things that my mom and dad don't necessarily want me to repeat.

I'm also up to four-word sentences! Pretty impressive according to my pediatrician!

I also LOVE to sing songs. I can't sing every word to songs but I throw in a word every now and then with perfect timing.

Mommy thinks it's amazing how much information a toddler's brain can hold.

Currently, my favorite phrases are:

• I wat Me Mow! = I watch Mickey Mouse!
• I do! I do! I do!
• Bad dog Bee Bo! = Bad dog Bevo!
• More [jews, me-yok, wa-wa, coo-kee] peas! = More [juice, milk, water, cookie] please!
• I walk! (this means: I don't want to be carried; I don't want you to hold my hand)
• Daddy/Momma sit right here!
• Watch! I jump!
• Rhee book! = Read book!
• Bah bah, bah bah, bah bahhhh! = Pacifier, pacifier, pacifier!
• Whoaaaaa!
• Bye Momma. Momma work! (I say this about five different times while mommy is getting dressed for work)
• Watch t.v. upstairs! (that's where the big t.v. and all my DVDs are)

**The reason there is an exclamation mark next to every phrase is because I am currently going through a phase where I am incapable of using my inside voice. I yell everything.

My mom and dad think I do the funniest things:

• If we're at a restaurant and a boy walks by, I'll just yell out "Hi boy!" I never do that with girls, just boys.
• When I see my reflection in the mirror, I grin, slowly look away, look back, and grin again.
• When my mom shows me the outfit she is about to put on me, I say "ooooo!"
• Whenever my mommy goes tee-tee, I like to watch and give an air kiss to her tee-tee. "Mmmmm-mah!!!" (kind of gross but really cute).
• When we read "Pat the Bunny" and we get to the page where we feel daddy's scratchy face, I feel daddy's face and then say I want to feel "mommy's scratchy face."
• I "talk" on my toy phones with so much emotion and flair. I carry on conversations where I start off happy (Heh-woh?), become very angry and frustrated (in jibberish) at the person I'm speaking with while I'm waving my arm around, and then abruptly say "bye-bye!"

I'll eat just about anything, but my favorite foods are:

• Mac-n-cheese
• Turkey dogs
• String cheese
• Baked Cheetos
• Korean food
• Any soup
• Green beans
• Any pasta
• Pineapple
• Avocados
• My great-grandmother's chicken and rice
• Corn on the cob (I can eat two whole cobs)
